- He doesn't seem to be much of a man, this friend of yours. I mean, he walks away. He's afraid to come over to the table when another man is sitting there.

- No, Mr. Kralik, he's was not afraid, I can assure you. He's tactful. He's sensitive. He's not the type of man who would walk up to a table uninvited.

- Well, it's difficult to explain a man like him to a man like you. Where you would say, Black, he would say, White. Where you would say, Ugly, he says, Beautiful. And where you say, Old maid, he says... Eyes that sparkle with fire and mystery.

- Vivacious... Fascinating... I remind him of gypsy music.

- Speaking of gypsy music, we've had a lot of trouble selling those Ochi Tchornya boxes, haven't we?

- Oh, well, that doesn't make any difference.

- Mr. Kralik, you can consider one box definitely sold. Yes. I've just had an inspiration. I'm going to give one of my friend for Christmas.

- Oh, Miss Novak, now, you're taking an awful chance.

You see, I don't like him. I hate to spend a nickel on him. Still, I must give him a present. So I thought if I have to give him a present at least give him something he won't enjoy.
